THE MAKING OF THREE CLASSIC WESTERN FILMS
Hosts Bobbi Jean and Jim Bell rendezvous with two Western film experts! Joining us are Michael F. Blake, author of The Cavalry Trilogy: John Ford, John Wayne and the Making of Three Classic Westerns, and Henry C. Parke, Film Editor for True West Magazine. This is a great discussion about the making of Western films including both Henry's and Michael's response to the new Kevin Costner film Horizon: An American Saga. Then we move into an in-depth look at Michael's recently published book -The Cavalry Trilogy: John Ford, John Wayne, and the Making of Three Classic Westerns. Michael takes us deep into the backstories and actual filming of Fort Apache, She Wore A Yellow Ribbon, and Rio Grande.
Our recommendation? Do what we did. Read the book. Watch each film with the book at hand. Michael's research and riveting prose will allow you to enjoy these three films in a new, fresh way!
